本文对英国奥伦斯测量局在19世纪率先建立地图上地名命名法的方法进行了重建。直到1820年,《测绘》的实践与早期制图师的实践几乎没有什么区别,但此后,官方测绘师被鼓励咨询广泛的书面和口头权威,并被指示将他们的调查结果记录在专门的名册中。到了世纪中期,现代地名系统的基本要素已经确定下来,成千上万的地名首次以地图的形式出版。1970年9月,在布里斯托大学举行的学会年度研讨会上,以简短的形式宣读了这篇论文。
AbstractA reconstruction is made of the methods by which the Ordnance Survey of Great Britain pioneered a system for establishing the place-name nomenclature on its maps in the nineteenth century. Until 1820 there was little to differentiate the practice of the Survey from that of earlier cartographers but, thereafter, official surveyors were encouraged to consult a wide range of written and oral authorities and were instructed to record their findings in special name books. By the mid-nineteenth century the essentials of the modern system had been laid down and many thousands of local names published in map form for the first time.This paper was read in a shorter form to the annual symposium of the Society in September 1970, at the University of Bristol.
